Confidential Business Sale

Sell Without Anyone Finding Out

Employees, vendors, customers and competitors never know until you decide to tell them. That is not a feature of our process. It is the process.

Confidentiality Is Built Into Every Step

A leak can cost you key employees, spook customers and hand competitors an opening. So we design the sale to keep information on a strict need-to-know basis, from the first listing to the closing table.

  1. Blind profile

    The business is marketed with no name, address or identifying details. Buyers see the opportunity, not the owner.

  2. Qualification first

    Buyers provide qualification data and sign our non-negotiable NDA before receiving anything confidential.

  3. Broker-managed contact

    Every call, email and question comes to us. Buyers may not contact you, your staff or your suppliers without written permission.

  4. Controlled disclosure

    Detailed financials and identity are released in stages, only to buyers who have earned the next step.

  5. Quiet site visits

    Tours and meetings are scheduled after hours or off-site, so the team never wonders who is walking through.

Our NDA Has Teeth

Buyers agree not to contact the seller or anyone related to the business without our written permission, and they accept personal liability for harm caused by breaking confidentiality. Terms are not negotiable.

Read the buyer NDA

Common Questions

Usually after closing, or shortly before it with key managers whose cooperation the buyer needs. We plan that conversation with you.
Our NDA makes the buyer personally liable for the broker fee and for harm to your business if they make information public or use it for their own gain.
Sometimes the best buyer is a competitor. We qualify them carefully and release sensitive data in stages, often only after a letter of intent.
